Ranga Frankenpen By Peytonstreetpens - Issues


Pen_Noob

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

I recently bought a Ranga ebonite from Peytonstreetpens, blowfiller with Eversharp feed and Waterman flex nib.

 

Before buying I was assured by Teri they check the pen, smooth nib, adjust inkflow etc.

 

Now, I bought it as gift to my wife for her birthday. Unfortunately it arrived a few weeks too late (probably shipping from US to Europe).

 

So, since Peytonstreetpens have a return policy I contacted them to return pen, never got any reply.

 

Finally got the pen, and the second disapointment was that the pen was (bleep) - scratchy, very dry, tines misaligned, so not usable. Had to send pen to nibmeister.

 

Again tried to contact Teri from Peyton, never a reply.

 

So I do not think this is the way to treat customers and to make a good name. I was quite angry and frustrated.

I'm so sorry to hear about the problem. I can assure you, I never got the message. Please send me a pm via FPN and we can get this matter sorted. We would have been happy to adjust the nib, or give you a refund. A lot can happen during international shipping ....

It is not about international shipping.

Anyway no idea if it makes any sense continuing this. I have tried to state my point. I bought something and I burned my fingers. Simple as that.

Confronted with a situation like this you have two choices:

1. You let the seller fix the problem.

2. You can keep on complaining.

This is also simple.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
